Chapter 107:

“Where is Sherry? I want to see her.”
Liam was a little worried. It had been a week now, there was no news from her and Liam was getting very worried. That day, what she said made him change his impression of her.
In fact, from the moment she had helped him dodge a bullet, his attitude and opinion towards her had changed. This time, although she acted very strong after being wounded, he was still very concerned about her in his heart.
“You can go, please, Sherry is fine!” Celia blocked the door, not allowing him to enter. “Just go and warn William, if he dares to tangle with Sherry again, I’ll break his leg!”
“Celia, it’s not my fault! You can’t blame me, I’m not just like Will!”
“Wasn’t it you who called William, couldn’t you have kept it to yourself, why did you have to tell him that Lucille was in the mental hospital?”
“Celia, let Liam in!” Sherry came out of the room, her expression calm, and greeted Liam when she saw him.
“Sherry, how are you?” Liam suddenly discovered that when confronted by Sherry, he was at a loss for words to say, even though he was normally cheerful and talkative.
This was because when he faced someone with such a calm expression, he felt only distress. Besides, he had lost some weight!
“I’m fine, Liam!”
“Sherry!” Celia suddenly screamed; she couldn’t take it anymore. She couldn’t stand that Sherry was still able to have a calm expression on her face.
Sherry froze, “Celia!”
“Hats off to you, I don’t want to worry about you anymore, you really piss me off! I really admire your ability to not let your emotion get the better of you. However, have you really forgotten what happened then? Damn, if you’re so great, so be it! Liam, go tell William that, if he hurt Sherry, I won’t let him go.”
After saying those threatening words, Celia left in a hurry.
“Liam, Celia meant no harm, please don’t listen to her!” explained Sherry.
Liam looked at her. Although she looked thin and delicate, she had such a strong inner will that he really felt sorry for her. However, at that moment, he knew that mentioning William would worsen her mood.
So, instead of saying anything, he just looked at her and continued to sigh…. Sherry was off to hit a job.
A single week and she seemed to have been reborn as the Phoenix Nirvana.
She always wears a faint smile on her face. With a newspaper in one hand, she arrived at a company called Cohen Group, said to be a new company, although it was publicly traded less than a year ago, the company developed quickly.
In just one year, Cohen Group even started to get involved in various fields such as finance, banking and investment. Cohen Group wanted to hire an assistant to the president.
|@†e$t ¢н@₽†əя$ ¡η ğ∆łиøvεℓś.cøm
Since Sherry studied finance, she naturally wanted to try for the position. Once she entered the building, she saw a large group of people coming to apply for jobs with job application forms in their hands.
This made his mind flash back to the incident that day when he applied for a job at Rowland Group.
With a bitter smile on her face, she thought to herself, “Why do I keep remembering? Sherry, you must forget it! You must be strong.”
When the time came, she rose from the lounger, a gray suit enveloping her increasingly malnourished body, and walked quietly into the office.
He hadn’t expected it to be so easy to apply for a job here; there was only one examiner, and he was the president of the Cohen Group, Cohen. The moment she saw him, Sherry froze. She hadn’t expected the examiner to be Cohen.
Cohen was also a little surprised. However, once he saw that it was Sherry, and took a look at the form in his hands, a playful smile could be seen on his face.
“Miss Sherry, is your mother’s name Sierra Anderson?” Sherry froze, hampered by the fact that he had loaned her money, she kept her cool and replied by saying, “Mr. Spencer, this is a personal matter, does your company still have to ask about employees’ ancestry when hiring assistants?”
“You are very feisty! So, without asking personal questions, I want to know why you left the Rowland Group.”
Her face straightened.
“The Rowland Group is much better than the Cohen Group, both in strength and history. Of course, Cohen Group still has room to grow, and I believe that, before long, Cohen Group will surpass Rowland Group and become the best integrated general division in all of Asia. But why have you decided to work for another company?”
Sherry lowered her head and pondered a bit.
“The reason I resigned has nothing to do with Rowland Group, Rowland Group is arguably the most generous in the industry when it comes to treating their employees, logically I should not leave there. The reason I left was because of private relationships that I will not go into. However, this is not about any confidential business!”
“Miss Sherry, being my assistant will be very tiring and busy, do you have the confidence to do it well?” Cohen looked her straight in the eyes.
“It will be enriching to be busy working!” replied Sherry subtly.
“Great, you’ve been accepted! Sherry, I’ve violated the hiring principle! I’ve told you the result directly! The others are usually told by phone!” Cohen said and smiled.
“Thank you, Mr. Spencer!” Sherry did not expect to be accepted so easily.
“You will be my personal assistant, who will also take care of my personal matters. For example, if I want to send flowers to a certain lady, you have to help me buy them. In addition, you also have to help me book airline tickets and even hotel rooms. However, since we only have a working relationship, there is no need for Miss Sherry to be too cautious, I have always held on to the saying that ‘the fox always hunts farthest from home’!”
Sherry’s face turned red, Cohen was truly a lovely person. He was quite old now, but he was still quite unorthodox, he would say things that might make people angry but not enough to make them talk back to him.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Spencer, I’ll be a qualified assistant!”
“Can you start working now?” asked Cohen with great appreciation.
“Yes!”
“That’s great, you should first familiarize yourself with the environment with the help of my assistant, Keegan Fox!” After Cohen pressed the phone, a tall man in a suit immediately entered.
He was in his mid-thirties and had a cold expression on his face.
“Keegan, this is Sherry. She will be my assistant from now on, Please bring her in to familiarize herself with her new work environment!”
“Understood!” Keegan nodded.
“Miss Sherry, please!” After she left, Cohen held his resume in his hand, looking at the column that had his mother’s name on it, two words were written, Sierra Anderson.
Cohen then fell into deep thought…so, dramatically, Sherry became Cohen’s assistant and began working at her new job.
As winter arrived, the wind began to blow hard. It looked like this winter would be extraordinarily cold.
It had been three weeks since she had come to work at the Cohen Group, Sherry had adjusted to the atmosphere here, and she had also gotten to know Cohen a little better, who on the outside seemed debauched and thoughtless, but was exceptionally serious about handling his work.
There was a rumor spread by his colleagues in the firm that Mr. Spencer had been in jail for ten years, she didn’t know if it was true, but she could see that Cohen was a person with a history.
Sherry had her own office, albeit with clear glass walls, it was a relatively quiet space. In this respect, Cohen was doing better than the Rowland Group, he gave employees enough space to improve their work efficiency.
Keegan entered the office and said in a cool voice, “Miss Sherry, today the ST Group representative is coming to negotiate, Mr. Spencer has asked you and me to pick him up on his behalf and arrange a hotel for him.”
“I’ll come right away.” Sherry immediately stood up.
Keegan added, “Right now, the President wants you to come to his office!”
“Okay!” Sherry picked up her purse and went to the bathroom for a while to get ready.
She’d been having insomnia lately and her face didn’t look good, so she’d put on a little makeup. She was worried that her makeup had smudged and that it would affect the company’s image. When her makeup was back on, she headed for Cohen’s office.
“President, are you looking for me?”
Cohen looked up and noticed Sherry’s face, this girl who never wore makeup did today, so he couldn’t help but ask, “Are you very tired lately?”
“No!”
“Is she adjusting well in this new job?”
“Yes!”
To be honest, working here was quite comfortable, Cohen provided a good working environment and the staff was very harmonious.
Mr. Spencer was quite funny and amusing, although he was already in his fifties, he could still be very charming, this often attracted her admiration.
“After picking up the TS Group representative tonight, I would like you to accompany me to a banquet, can you arrange it?” Cohen asked kindly.
The way he was giving Sherry was like a father looking at his daughter. Besides, Sherry had always felt that he was like a father to her, except that from time to time he spoke a little explicitly, this person was really a good person.
“But my son is coming back tonight, today is Friday, I’m afraid I can’t go with you!”
“Your son?” Cohen raised his eyebrows, he hadn’t expected Sherry to have a son.
“You have a son?”
Sherry looked at him incredulously and smiled slightly, “Yes, Mr. Spencer, I have a son, he’s five years old!”.
“That’s fine. Take your son and let’s attend together.”
“Will that be appropriate?” Sherry laughed.
“You are very smart, I’m afraid when the time comes, I won’t be able to remember the math question the others say, I need your help to memorize it, the others are very stupid and can’t really memorize it, If I won’t bother you in a weekend!”
“Actually, I’m really stupid!”
Sherry didn’t expect Mr. Spencer to tell her to use her brain to memorize. Since it was for work, and the president is allowing her to take Dan with them, it will be bad to turn him down.
“You are not stupid, now go ahead, go pick up the client! By the way, order a bouquet of flowers for me, I want to go pick up a beautiful girl!” Cohen laughed.
“Uh!” Sherry froze, these few weeks, she was helping him order flowers every day, vaguely knowing that Cohen was a soft person, but fortunately he didn’t play with women in the company.
There was an unwritten rule for employees of the company, which was that you were not allowed to fall in love with anyone who worked there.
“Okay, I will immediately reserve some flowers for you!”
“Okay! Although I don’t like women who wear make-up, but this light make-up of yours is extraordinarily pleasing to the eye,” Cohen added.
“This is because lately my face looks quite bad while I also had to meet with some clients and I dare not give a bad appearance in front of them!” explained Sherry while lowering her head.
“Beautiful!” Cohen praised her wholeheartedly, then sighed, “It’s good to be young! Please use less cosmetics in the future, it’s not good for your skin and it’s easy to breed cancer like that!”
“Yes! Thank you for the concern, I will pay more attention in the future!”
Sherry stood up and said, “Assistant Keegan and I will go first!”
“Go ahead!” Cohen nodded his head in agreement…..
Airport.
Keegan stopped the car, the plane hadn’t arrived yet.
They drove a luxury motor home and the two arrived at the pick-up gate.
Keegan turned his head to give Sherry a glance, she always had a slight smile on her face. No matter when he looked at her, she was always like that, as if she had nothing to bother her, always so serene, so calm.
“Miss Sherry, why are you always so happy?” Keegan finally asked in the face of the confusion he’d had for the past three weeks. He was not a talkative person, but seeing her smile, he felt inexplicably at ease, because her smile was contagious to others.
“Good!” Sherry’s impression of him was that he had always been very cold and didn’t like to talk or laugh.
Therefore, they never talked about anything outside of work, seeing that he had asked her about this, she was quite surprised.
“Is Assistant Keegan unhappy?”
“No! I’m just curious how he can smile every day.”
